In The Interim – Vienna, Austria

Just a few shots of Vienna taken during our 4 night stay with friends

Walter, Sierd, Sigrid and

King Leopold

Sierd on a bad hair day

Finally breakfast and an expresso makes Sierd human again

And this breakfast makes us really happy

Sierd shopping for diamonds!

Beautiful cathedral undergoing restoration

Adornments on the front of a small chapel

Building designed by Wagner

Happy times in the Prater

A ride more to my taste!

Even the bread was designed

Sierd studying for his android exams in October

However, Sierd would rather be studying pastry making at Vienna’s premier pastry shop – Dremel’s (and not related to the dremel tool)

Of course we had to sample

And on departure had to look at the apartment building known as the Hunderwaterhauss

And the a bike ride through the Prater and over to the north shore of the Danube where the nude sunbathers stretch for miles. Here is one  appropriately dressed for a stroll up to one of the many coffee and beer restaurants.
